British Benevolent society.

The British Colony should be appraised
OF the fact that funds are urgently needed
for carrying out the objects of the Benev-
Olent Society formed for the purpose of
relieving distress among people of Brit
ish birth. As the empire under the Eng
lish Crown is vast one in extent, it fol-
lows that many cases of distress may be
looked for among British subjects at
large seaport like Honolulu. Fhe Brit
ish Consulate takes care of distressed
seamen of its own nationality; but there
are many waits and strays from the
Mother Country and the Colonies who
are occasionally dependent upon pro-
miscuous charity, and calls upon the
funds during the current year on this ac-
count have been unusually large. In

lions to the society's funds, also new
contributions, which it is, to &c hoped
will be largely increased this Jubilee

sAN ANTONIO, Texas, March 3l.-In
many portions Of the territory tributary
to this city the suffering from drought is
severe. In Atasca county the people have
been robbed OF bare necessaries. All
crops are failure. Milk and butter are
scarce. Lean COWS are as common as fat
ones once were, and unless it rains soon
the people will be brought to starvation.
North and west, in Medina county, the
cattle are dying SO fast that their owners
cannot skin them, and though in sections
further west the mortality is not so great,
il is very large. The number OF dead
and dying cattle can be best appreciated
by comparison of the hide market here.
II is always large one and active, but
now it is overstocked and prices are drop
ping hourly. There is in many portions
Of the country absolutely no range, and
would not be for some weeks, even II Il
should rain tonight. Texas grass ib hard
to devitalize, hut the months Of drought
have proved too much for il. There is
consequent uneasiness In stock circles.

The E,rlends, PrinceIY Reauest.

II is estimated that over $500, 900 will
be at the disposal of the Philadelphia
Yearly Meeting Of Friends, bequeathed
by the late John M. George of Over
brook, for the establishment Of board
ing. school, TO be located In eastern Penn
sylvania and to receive children OF
Friends and such others as q committee
of the yearly meeting may think proper.
At the next session of the yearly meeting,
which will be held in May, committee
will probably be chosen TO receive the
heqnest from The erecutors of the estate,
after which the disposition of the funds
will be determined by the yearly meeting.
No location has yet been fixed upon for
the proposed school, but the land of the
Arlington Monthly Meeting, near Jenkin-
town, Montgomery county, is being urged
as an advantageous site. This property
consists Of 125 acres Of land which was
dedicated to educational purposes by
John Barnes, nearly 200 years ago. A large
meeting house and commodious build
ing for boarding school are located on
the property, and could be made use of
at once il desired.
